Making lip balm.


Resources

Empty Lip Balm Pots
Yellow Beeswax Pellets
Coconut Oil
Essential Oils: 3 drops 100% Pure Peppermint Essential Oil, 5 drops 100% Pure Lemon Essential Oil ( Can be any essential oil of choice )
Small Glass Bowl Microwavable
Microwave
Syringe

Instructions

1. Add 1 Tablespoon of the beeswax pellets into a small glass dish.

2. Microwave the pellets on high power for about 45 seconds. If you have a strong microwave, start with 30 seconds before checking on it.

3. Then add 1 Tablespoon of the coconut oil.

4. Return it to the microwave for another 45 seconds or so.

5. Next add in the essential oils and mix it well with a small fork or baby spoon. You might want to return it to the microwave after this for another 15 seconds, just to keep it warm and liquid.

6. Using the syringe, add to the tubs.

** It cools and solidifies fairly quickly, so if you notice it clumping up as you fill the tubes, put the glass bowl back in the microwave for 15 seconds to heat it up again. **
